The crypto market is experiencing a significant surge, with Bitcoin's new all-time high driving altcoin gains, including Ethereum.

Crypto Market Overview

The crypto market has seen a significant surge in the last two days, with Bitcoin reaching a new all-time high of $75K. This rise has also driven some altcoins to new peaks.

Ethereum's Three-Month High

Ethereum has reached a three-month high, prompting many long-term and dormant whales to take profits. Following a 13.75% surge in Ethereum’s price, three ETH holders began selling. Specifically, two holders sold 33,701 ETH valued at $89.72 million.

Whale Activity and Market Impact

The first of these whales sent 25,000 ETH to Kraken, retaining 64,450 ETH. Another whale, dormant for over eight years, sold 8,701 ETH, leaving behind 2,304 ETH valued at $6.48 million. This increased whale activity raises fears of potential sell-offs that could push ETH prices towards correction.

If the current momentum is maintained, Ethereum could register further gains, potentially reaching the $3000 resistance level. However, recent whale sales could trigger a market correction, with prices possibly declining to $2670.
